From now until the 12th of March, and only while stocks last – you can pick up two top quality Katana for $70 off our everyday, already heavily discounted prices…

The first sword is the crazy sharp, XL blade profile Katana by Paul Chen and the Hanwei Forge with Musashi Style Iron Tsuba and leather ito handle wrap..

The blade is differentially hardened 1566 Carbon Steel with an especially steep blade profile, allowing it to cut tatami mats, bamboo and water filled bottles like a hot knife through butter..

The Unique Blade Profile of the XL blade..

The other sword with a $70 discount (and FREE SHIPPING to boot) is the ultra durable 5160 Spring Steel Summer Lotus Katana by Dragon King..

With a level of attention to details that exceeds any other production sword on the market, this sword really is the complete package.

So if you love Katana and love a special offer, simply choose what type of blade you prefer. If you like crazy sharp blades – go the Musashi. If you prefer extreme durability (still with a VERY keen edge), then the Summer Lotus is for you! You can’t have it all in the one blade, but you can have one blade that focuses on one of the ends of the spectrum perfectly with this special offer..

Offer Ends March 12th and while stocks last..

Just a quick update to let you all know that we just reached the quota of pre-orders that Chris can comfortably fulfil on the Scorpion Swords Tactical Ko Katana.

As such, no more pre-orders can be placed until existing orders have been fulfilled over the coming 5-7 weeks or so.

So in the meantime, the sword has been moved to the sword archive here and we will be letting everyone know via the store newsletter and here on the blog when they are available to order again.

Looking forward to getting them out to you all!

For those of you who have been waiting for this one – need we say more? For anyone new, if you like ‘evolution of the sword’ kind of projects, you need to see this project asap as availability is limited, and Chris Palmer from Scorpion swords can only make so many before we will need to pause taking new orders. So get in while you can..

Two Wrongs (the double oops)..

I had to retract a recent post about the new Kingston Arms swords designed by Angus Trim that arrived just before the weekend – as not only had the swords not been made to the correct specifications, but my description of the error was also erroneous..

Hence, the title of this post – Two Wrongs (the double oops)..

From the description I was provided late Friday afternoon of the swords – I was under the impression that the leather fittings were black instead of as pictured below..

Type XIV Single Hand Medieval Arming Sword

Type XVIII Single Hand Medieval Sword

As it turns out – the swords WERE/ARE exactly as pictured here, but SHOULD have had reddish brown grips..

The main thing that caused them to be off spec was the type XIV is a bit overweight and the edges on both didn’t fit with what CAS Iberia were looking for in an out of the box performance sword. Also, they swapped the pommels between the swords from Gus’s originals.

I will contact everyone who ordered in the next couple of minutes to see if they are okay with and relist any remaining swords as soon as we get final clarification.

Sometimes one oops just follows another one – sorry to everyone for any inconvenience. 😛
